Silver Spring, MD 20907
I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in treating adolescents and young adults with a variety of presenting problems including OCD, anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and behavioral concerns. With a compassionate, collaborative approach, I work to empower clients by focusing on their unique strengths and personal resilience.
I utilize Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT) and a strengths-based approach to help individuals build lasting coping strategies, increase psychological flexibility, and achieve meaningful change.
Whether you're dealing with intrusive thoughts, overwhelming worry, or persistent low mood, I offer a supportive space to explore and overcome these challenges. With a focus on helping clients develop practical tools and insight, I am dedicated to fostering a path toward emotional well-being and a life in alignment with your values.
